This report provides a detailed analysis of the global market for 13 key
medium- and heavy-duty truck OEMs (Classes 4 through 8) and 18 of their
key Tier 1 component suppliers, as well as the competitive environment
in which they operate.

Topics include global, regional and major country production volumes and
values; prices; market shares; the competitive environment; and mid- and
long-range forecasts. In addition, there are in-depth discussions of
issues facing the industry, such as profitability and growth strategies,
product mixes, new technologies, aftermarket services, service revenues,
current and emerging markets, value chains, restructuring, R&D, and
financial performance, among others.

Extensive profiles of 31 public companies involved in the production of
medium- and heavy-duty trucks and components are presented.
Illustrations include 81 tables and 140 figures.

The Asia-Pacific Region is dominant, with 48% of 2014 global production
value. The Chinese market is the largest in the world but is dominated
by low-cost, locally produced vehicles that offer basic, less
sophisticated technology than their Western counterparts. However a huge
opportunity exists in China if the adoption of Western technology
escalates, as has happened in Russia. Japanese OEMs still only have
mid-tier status but environmental regulations bode well for their growth
by virtue of their engine technologies.

The fastest growth market is NAFTA; Europe and Asia Pacific are
projected to grow at slower rates.

The report can be put to immediate use for sales and market planning,
M&A identification, competitive share analysis, alliances and technology
transfer considerations.
